Played a game this past weekend with US against Russians ... cold weather in California infected our dice ... rolls all around were terrible!

Man that's awesome! Set up, figures, everything. :-* :-*

Thanks!!  Yes, many moons ago I sold off everything I had that wasn't 28mm ... decided having 4-5 sets of terrain for different scales was nonsense ... so picked 28mm and standardized all periods and my whole collection around that ... with the exception of a few things like naval and space games.

That's an awesome looking game table.
I had stalled out on building my 1/48 cold war era models during the holidays.
But seeing your game table has given me the inspirational push I needed to get going again.
